The Ohio State Buckeyes added Chip Kelly to their coaching staff this offseason.
With experience as a head coach at both the collegiate level and professional level, Kelly comes braced with a chance to rewrite his legacy and win a national championship for one of the most high-profile programs in the country.
With the move, he went from being a head coach to an offensive coordinator, having spent from 2018 to 2023 with the UCLA Bruins prior to joining Ohio State.
When asked about the biggest difference between being a head coach and now working more behind the scenes, his response was legendary and should give most a good chuckle.

Kelly enjoys a good bathroom break, and I’m sure Ryan Day may say something similar in that position.
That said, Kelly has been a key addition for the Buckeyes as he has fostered an offensive built on the team’s dynamic backs, one which will get a first real test this week against the Iowa Hawkeyes.
